president obama was more like mitt romney. i think there was more preaching to the choir in those final night addresses by romney and obama than there was anything else. you have to do that too. you have to energize the base. i'll tell you again, what strikes me is how dug in people are this year. i don't think anything is going to change very much. this will be a close competitive contest, probably all the way to the end. >> they will be fighting it out all the way to the end. >> politics and foreign policy taking center stage during the final night of the democratic national convention. after a video narrated by tom hanks which highlighted the death of osama bin laden and the strength of the american military, a grouch veterans including some retired generals took the stage as the crowd said thank you. massachusetts senator and 2004 presidential candidate john kerry took the opportunity to skewer mitt romney. >> he was against a date on withdrawal, said it was right and then threat impression it was wrong to leave too soon.

and both president obama and tt romney will address the gathering tuesday. jennifer, this is going to present an opportunity for the candidates to perhaps talk about some issues that they might not get to discuss on the campaign trail. who has the advantage here? >> well, i think that it depends how they use that time. they can use that to talk about their own foreign policy or use it to critique the other guy's foreign policy, and it is a good setting for both of them. in particular, i think that the president with the evolving story on libya has some real foreign policy problems and he may want to address and defend his own middle eastern policies and may want to use that time. >> ann, if you were addressing governor romney, what would you tell him to use that time for? >> he needs to use that time to tell the american public where he stands on the issues. so far he has been vague. and on afghanistan we know he agrees with the president's time line for withdrawal of 2014 and he says he would not have addressed it publicly, but beyond that we don't know too
